Frontend engineer resume guide
Strong frontend resumes show user impact and engineering depth: performance, accessibility, and maintainable systems.
What recruiters look for
- • User-facing impact (conversion, retention, UX metrics)
- • Performance (Core Web Vitals, bundle size, p95)
- • Accessibility and quality (a11y, testing, error rates)
- • Architecture (design systems, component libraries)
Bullet examples
Example (performance)
Reduced JS bundle size by 42% via code-splitting and dependency cleanup, improving LCP by 0.9s and increasing conversion by 1.6%.
Example (design system)
Built a reusable component library (React + Tailwind) adopted across 6 teams, reducing UI build time per feature by ~30%.
